Here’s a little lengthy bit about how to save Cmaps online for group collaboration. So here’s my map. I have it saved on my laptop and now I’m going to save it to an online server. The first thing is … Continue reading →

This is just goofy, embarrassing but I am sharing it out as part of yesterday’s Daily Create, called Who Are You? The assignment asked us to create a video of us, but using the lens of a scientific television show (I don’t think anyone got mauled by lions as they shot footage, but you never […]

It is enormously soul-satisfying to have created something before the workaday world begins.

The internet has had a huge impact on how we consume information and media. I wonder what the long-term cultural outcome of that will be. How does it change how we experience music? And how will that change our culture? … Continue reading →

I belatedly came across a blog post by George Siemens on The Challenge of Coherence that got me thinking asbout some of the things we’re doing in The Internet Course. He talks about how teachers traditionally make sense out of … Continue reading →

(This is for the Slice of Life feature at Two Writing Teachers) Each day, I receive an email notification from The Daily Create (an offshoot of  DS106) about an activity to get the brain and thinking mind moving in new directions. It’s really such a great idea, these short assignments that push boundaries with humor […]

I got a smattering of suggestions interest in the google doc, but a big gold star sticker goes to Dr Jones for sending me 2 great recorded remix sets. I have a lot of archive material, and put it in a playlist. It was 8 hours long I thought maybe we could do some call in stuff too, but since I had so much stuff, I kind of just took it over. Sue me. I put all the files in iTunes, and for the longer clips, I use the setting where you could define where it started playing, so I could have just a sample.
